Tonight, the sky was gray and there was no white moonlight or brilliant starlight, but such a scene did not affect the love between the two in the slightest, but made them closer.

Zhirong clinged to Yan Hua's solid chest, her hands around his neck, such intimacy made her feel that the fatigue of these days had disappeared, and she could only feel at ease in his arms.

Yan Hua practiced touching her face, back, and arms. She had lost too much weight. And during the days when he is about to leave, there will definitely be no peace in the capital.

He is not afraid of the situation in southern Xinjiang, he is not afraid of the eyes of those great families, and he does not care whether his plan can succeed. is afraid that Zhirong will be able to protect himself in this cannibalistic palace.

He remembered the scene of the bright little girl dying in his arms a few years ago, and he was even more afraid. He must not let Xi'er's matter happen to Zhirong, he wants to tell Zhirong about Xi'er's affairs completely, but he wants to be with her before leaving.

Then I don't think about anything, just be by my beloved's side.

"Yanhua, do you have anything to say to me?" Zhirong thought of Xi'er at this time, she hoped that Yanhua would tell her in person instead of Li You or others.

Yan Hua hugged her and sat down, smoothing her beautiful hair: "After I leave, there will be more crises in the palace, because Murong Guifei is pregnant, Li You is involved in politics, and the crown prince and King Cheng are already a little uncontrollable." And Qiu Manhua, you must be careful, she hurt you once, maybe there will be a second time. ”

Zhirong pursed his lips, thinking that his stern face was going to say that he was sorry, but he didn't expect this. But. She knew that Yan Hua was all because she was too worried, so her heart was still warm.

"Do you know the background of Concubine Yu?"

Yan Hua was stunned, she didn't expect her to ask Concubine Yu. smiled and comforted her: "You don't have to worry about the affairs of the jade concubine. She is also from southern Xinjiang, so rest assured that she will not be unfavorable to you. ”

Zhirong looked at him differently, why did Yan Hua avoid this question? It's true that Concubine Yu doesn't go out of the palace often, but since she is a royal family in Southern Xinjiang, she must know Duan Ziyan, how could Yan Hua not even know about the affairs of the harem.

If Yan Hua knew the Jade Concubine, then Yan Hua must have been able to hear the voice of the woman in the sedan chair in the valley that day. Zhirong hesitated, did she say it or not?

Think about the behavior of Yanhua that day. It was completely an indulgence of Murong Hong's behavior. Could it be that this qiē is also in his hands? Forget it, she still doesn't care about the political game. At this time, the two should still cherish time and each other.

"I just see that she looks too much like Tao Lingran, the eldest lady of the Tao family, so I'm curious." It's not a lie either. It was indeed her suspicion.

Yan Hua said with a smile: "There are so many people who are similar in the world, and they are not new. I'm still worried about you, fool. ”

Zhirong kissed his cheek and smiled mischievously: "I will protect myself." Waiting for you to come back. ”

"Rong'er. Wait for me, you must wait for me. Yan Hua's voice suddenly had a long abyss, like a slow flowing water, like a deep night sky, like a ray of light, which made people can't help but want to immerse themselves in it and never come out again.

"When I return, I will ask the emperor to marry you, and then we can be together forever. I'm going to take you to another place where I live with the most beautiful scenery I've ever seen, and you'll love it. ”

Zhirong tilted her head and asked, "You are with me at the ends of the earth?" "If she leaves with Yan Hua, then no matter where she is at the end of the world, she can not care about any fame at all.

"Hmm. I will accompany you at the ends of the earth, and we will enjoy the beautiful scenery of the world. ”

Yan Hua stared at Zhirong's white and flushed cheeks. The faint hairs were barely visible, and the earlobes were red and seemed to be dripping blood. He couldn't help but kiss that beautiful cheek and lick her earlobe.

"Ahh Zhirong screamed sensitively, and her face instantly turned even redder. "Bad guys!"

These two words are soft, and there is a girl's unique coquettishness, Yanhua can't help but feel fluttering, this kind of Zhirong is the most cute. He smiled wickedly, "There will be worse ones when I get back." ”

Zhirong pursed her mouth and grimaced, somehow she felt very sleepy, she was more excited when she saw Yanhua before, but now she couldn't resist the feeling of lying down and sleepiness, and she fell asleep after a while.

Yan Hua looked at her in surprise, does this girl sleep regardless of the occasion? He just licked his earlobe, and he wanted to kiss her again. Then the thought in my mind turned, is it the same as when I was in the valley?

Outside is not a place to sleep after all, Yan Hua picked up Zhirong and suddenly heard a beautiful flute sound, he suddenly trembled, this is Xi'er's favorite song, Xi'er used to play it often.

He flew down and looked around to see Li You's figure in a garden, and the sound of the flute also stopped at this time.

Li You's eyes were fixed on the sleeping Zhirong, and his heart ached. When Yan Hua entered the Shang Palace Bureau, he followed until he saw the two of them come out and come here, and he looked at the intimate two people on the eaves in this garden, and his breathing was about to stop.

"Are you telling the truth?" The voice of the two talking was high and low, but Yan Hua was extremely serious when he said this, and his voice was relatively loud, so Li You could hear it clearly.

Yan Hua solemnly replied: "Naturally. In this life, I only have one wife, Zhirong. ”

Li You smiled a little bitterly and revealed relief, "Okay, very good, it's best if you can keep your promise." I will bless you. ”

His words changed sharply, and his tone was cold: "If you fail her, I will not spare you." ”

Yan Hua snorted coldly: "There won't be that day." With that, he hugged Zhirong and left.

Li You looked at the jade flute in his hand blankly, and sighed deeply, some people don't belong to him after all.

When Zhirong woke up, Yanhua had already left the capital, and she stood on the tower of the Shanggong Bureau for a morning until the assembly bell rang.

Today, Murong Guifei invited the concubines and female officials of the Monks Bureau to watch the lotus flowers and watch the plays, and the students also had the opportunity to go out to breathe.

After Concubine Wen left, Concubine Murong was the only one, and this harem was completely under her control, except for a few concubines who were good friends with Concubine Wen who did not accept her affection. Everyone else is moving closer to her in a different way.

Early in the morning, everyone came to the edge of the largest lotus pond in the palace to enjoy the scenery, and the trainees such as Zhirong just sat in the corner, listening to Niangniang playing language games. Beautiful faces were piled with fake smiles.

Murong Guifei sat in the middle, her face was ruddy, and she seemed to be younger than when Wen Guifei was there. Today, she dressed up and traveled, with high hair in a bun, hairpins, jade, and two golden forks inserted on both sides, and the big gold inlaid jade step was very bright, and it showed the ultimate luxury and wealth.

On her left is the crown princess, and on her right hand is Princess Cheng. And the jade concubine was in a position on the side, as if the surrounding qiē had nothing to do with her.

The female officials of the Shanggong Bureau are also dressed more flamboyant than before today, and there will also be format embellishments on the hair crown. The six rounds of the Dashang Palace are also talking from time to time. Pushang Palace just didn't hear it, and occasionally exchanged a few words with Murong Guifei.

If Shen Zhihua is the most influential and talented, Xia Yunshang is the most resolute and hardworking, and Pu Shanggong can become the kind of wise and foolish. has always governed the Shanggong Bureau in a middle-of-the-road manner.

And she has no ambitions. On the general leader Shang Gong, who is not talented and not outstanding, is most liked by the high-ranking women in the harem, it doesn't matter if there is no innovative stitching, as long as you don't care about the harem affairs, you can manage the Shang Palace Bureau in obscurity.

Zhirong has also heard people talk about Xia Yunsheng, it is said that Xia Yunshang was not only talented but also had a good face back then, and he loved to study very much, when the strength of the Shanggong Bureau was not so strong at the beginning.

It was she who strengthened the regulations of the Ming Law Department and the Criminal Law Department, and the scope of application of the laws and regulations was extended to the concubines under the harem and all the grandmothers and palace maids.

It was an unprecedented reform. Because of that reform, Xia Yunshang became the second myth. Zhirong sighed in his heart, maybe the master back then was too lonely in his heart to continue to expand the strength of the Shang Palace Bureau. Because of this, I have a dislike for the queen.

"Niangniang, you have worked hard, and on this hot day when you are pregnant with a dragon fetus, you are also worthy of the sisters to enjoy the lotus." When Murong Guifei was chatting with the other concubines, the crown princess suddenly said this.

Murong Guifei frowned, since she was pregnant, the relationship between the prince's party and the Murong family was not as good as before. Two days ago, Shang Gong of the Medical Department checked her pulse and confirmed that it was a male fetus, and the result of this was that the prince and his henchmen were even more worried.

King Cheng was released early because of his good appearance, but the crown prince has always been reprimanded by the emperor recently. And the Murong family now has hope again, although it is not clear, but it is obvious that the Jin family and the Murong family have parted ways.

The emperors of the Jingtang Dynasty lived long and short, and the longest was the first emperor, who lived to be seventy-five years old. Now that the emperor is in his fifties, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not live as long as the previous emperor, so the crown prince will have to go through a long wait, and Murong Guifei's children will also grow up.

The crown princess is a person who can't bear her temperament, she doesn't have Jin Zixuan's wisdom, and she became the crown princess completely by virtue of her status as the eldest daughter.

However, now the Jin family is not as good as before, Jin Zixuan was punished by the emperor for not doing good things in southern Xinjiang, and her arrogance regardless of the occasion is really ridiculous.

"The concubine is kind-hearted, sister, don't say that if you don't like it. The weather is much stronger than the previous days, and the mother has added ice cubes to make it very cool. ”

Princess Cheng smiled slightly with a pair of narrow phoenix eyes, and her words were like cool water entering Murong Guifei's hot heart.

Murong Guifei took her hand and said with a smile: "Among these children, you are still the most caring. As he spoke, he took a sip of herbal tea and didn't look at the princess.

This sentence slapped the crown princess in the face, although she is the crown princess of the East Palace, she is still a junior after all, and it is really inappropriate to talk like that just now.

"Murong Guifei also hurts to become a princess too much, but she also has to take care of her body."

The crown princess sneered and said: "Princess Cheng has never given birth and raised, so naturally I don't know the hard work of pregnancy, but I am sympathetic to the concubine Niangniang who said that, not to mention that Niangniang is pregnant with a male fetus." ”

This sentence hit Princess Cheng's sore spot again, she thinks she has both talent and appearance, but unfortunately she has not moved at all in her stomach after marrying into Princess Cheng's mansion for so many years, and there are not many heirs of Prince Cheng, only the concubine gave birth to two daughters. She longed for a boy day and night, but she couldn't get it.

Princess Cheng's face was very ugly at this time, and she glanced at the crown princess. He looked at Murong Guifei's slightly bulging lower abdomen again. This is again an enemy of kinghood.

Concubine Murong seemed to be aware of it, and cast a cold gaze, but Princess Cheng pretended to be okay and looked at the flowers.

"I heard that Sister Yufei's plum blossom picture is embroidered, can you take it out for everyone to see?" Murong Guifei turned to smile at the jade concubine on the side.

The jade concubine only slightly curled the corners of her mouth: "The concubine will send someone to get it." ”

Zhirong in the corner was uncomfortable, what kind of plum blossom picture to take at this time, only begging Murong Guifei not to remember who embroidered it. Listening to those ladies talking, she felt more tired than embroidering for a day and a night.

Soon the screen of stepping on the snow to find the plum was sent, and Zhirong closed the door all day when she embroidered this picture, and after embroidering it, she covered it with a layer of cloth and gave it to the jade concubine, so most people have never seen this picture.

When the tarpaulin was removed, everyone was stunned. Even those who have seen this picture can't help but want to see it more closely. The base is made of gold yarn, reflecting golden light in the sun.

The white snow also seems to be covered with a layer of golden light, and the plum blossoms are like red lips like flames, blooming in the cold and flying all over the sky, this real summer and the winter in the picture have become a strong visual contrast.

"This palace used to think that the peony was the most beautiful, and today when I see this picture, I know that the red plum can also be so beautiful. This looks like an embroidered screen but a real scene. Murong Guifei couldn't take her eyes off the picture and couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

Her thoughts happen to be everyone's thoughts, and this picture is still not an embroidered screen but seems to be immersive.

"Sister, I'll go relieve you." Zhirong whispered in Wei Ting's ear.

Wei Ting naturally understood her thoughts and pointed the way: "Go quickly." ”

However, at this moment, I heard Concubine Yu say: "Niangniang, this picture is thanks to Bai Xiu. ”

Murong Guifei's eyes lit up: "Where is Bai Xiu?" ”

In this way, Zhirong's plan to escape fell through, she stared at Concubine Yu, what enmity do I have against you? It's at this time that I'm talking about it. Although Yan Hua said that Concubine Yu would not harm her, she always felt that this woman's cold and terrible was completely unreliable.

"Student Bai Zhirong greets the concubine!" Zhirong came to Murong Guifei.

Murong Guifei looked at her and felt that this woman's appearance was acceptable, but she was not stunning, and her attitude softened: "No wonder the emperor ordered you to be a sixth-grade female official, and she really deserves it." You're a humble kid who calls yourself a student. ”

Zhirong hurriedly said: "The mother is too famous, it is a blessing for the students to be able to embroider for the mothers of the palaces, and the emperor's grace is vast, but the students dare not forget their identity." ”

Concubine Murong nodded, if Zhirong had just accepted the title of her female official, she would still feel that Zhirong was proud, but now she felt that this woman was talented and clever, and it would be good if she could use it for herself.

On the other side, the crown princess stared at Zhirong hatefully, if it wasn't for Zhirong's carriage getting in the way that day, she would have led people to support the people of the Northern Regions Royal Mansion to sue King Cheng.

The thing was not done, and she was scolded by the prince together, and this tone did not go down until Zhirong was disabled, and when she heard that Zhirong actually stayed and embroidered something to wear clouds, her tone followed again, and she said in her heart: I must make her look good today.

And Qiu Manhua, who was also angry, thought in his heart that it was not as simple as making Zhirong look good. (To be continued......)
